fabsroman,

I can understand why you use it, but in my eyes it defeats the theory of what an auction is.

I (from my point of view) see it as the site allowing cheating, if they are to cheap to monitor the stuff and not assure fairness, they are little better than an cheesy online Asian bazaar. (Ask Dom to tell you about the Asian Markets just inside the Czech border)

With the human element gone, it is not truly an auction.

I know a real auction has people on the phones bidding, but a human is waving that goofy little paddle for the guy/gal on the phone.
